The VSCO man

OK, so I’ve not been video making as I said I would be doing in my last post, but I’ve been going down another Gabriel Macht rabbit hole instead (I’ve been down one before a couple of years back). Last night I came across this video again which was shared by his wife Jacinda on Instagram about 10 months ago. I had seen it before and it had cracked me up at the time but now I just needed to share it here as well as it made me laugh all over again.

I had no idea what a VSCO girl was, had to look it up, and I think my daughter may be one as well with her large t-shirts over short shorts in the summer (but not with the backpack, headband and scrunchies). Anyway, the 48 year old VSCO man version looks like this…

His shirt is a little short but that’s because he’s wearing his wife’s clothes in this (including her shorts, apparently). For good measure, here are some shaggy Covid-bearded, brown-eyed close up screenshots of Gabriel, the VSCO man. Gotta say, the look has grown on me…

I had to include a Gabriel grinning picture above because his grins really are the best whether he’s long-haired and shaggy-bearded or not. He has such a shit-eating grin if ever I’ve seen one and it doesn’t surprise me that he seems to have a good sense of silliness…

I’d never be able to convice Mr Esther to dress up like a VSCO man, as much as I’d love to see it. For some months now I’ve been trying to convince him to let me braid his Covid beard but he won’t let me even do that… My husband can really make me laugh and he has many wonderful, extraordinary qualities that I absolutely love him for, but being silly like this isn’t one of them. I guess that’s one thing I like about actors, they can go all silly at times, or at least Gabriel Macht can, with his big grin and mirthful brown eyes, and that can always brighten my day.
